Membership

Membership in the Anglers of the Au Sable is a demonstrable way to lend sustained support to the Anglers’ mission. Many of our members have been with us since year one (1987) but we are always looking for new people who believe in our mission and can help us continue our conservation stewardship. We need, as many organizations do, fresh ideas, youthful energy, and new perspectives to help us continue to preserve the Au Sable conservation ethic that has helped us succeed in protecting the Au Sable watershed and its environs.

Membership is on a revolving basis. You will be reminded to renew your membership approximately 4 – 6 weeks before it expires. For example, if you join the Anglers on September 15, you will be reminded in August of the next year that your membership will expire soon. Renewing is easy. To renew your membership, simply log in to your Anglers of the Au Sable account and renew. If during the login process you don’t remember your username or password, click on “Forgot your password? click here”. Or you can download our PDF membership application/renewal form and send it to our organization headquarters in Grayling along with payment, whichever is easier for you.

The Au Sable lost the best friend it ever had. Calvin “Rusty” Gates Jr., "Da Gator" to his legion of acquaintances, passed away on 19 December 2009. Things in this beautiful valley will never be the same.
